After my first and only attempt at bow repair, I am left with catastrophic failure. Now I am looking for someone or somewhere locally to get my bow repaired in the Dallas Tx area. Can anyone help?

The oneida repair videos on youtube are top-notch also, everyone needs to check them out if they haven't already. :)

There are also charts and manuals as well as you can see support from many Oneida owners always willing to help. The bows look complicated but once you read the manuals or watch the videos they are very easy to work on. Minimal tools required also.

The guys offering to help aren't noobs at this. Like Skippy said, we've all been there.
My advice is to pick one person who offered help, go to PM's, and let them walk you through it.
You'll have the bow back together in no time and will be better for the journey.

This is not a knock on anyone here. I know ya'll all can do it. I question my ability and my ability to properly describe the issues. But let me recover....and we may just have go. Having an oneida go "boom" in your hands is a bit disconcerting......

What Oneida do you have? Is the timing System still entacted? Are any cables broke, Could it be the cables attached to the outboard limbs (Power Cables) or the Yoke which are attached to the cams (Yoke Cables)? Are any broke or frayed? Or is it the string? Just trying to narrow it down some? Pictures as mention would help but knowing the model will also be helpful. I am familiar with the AF and LFM mostly.

Do you know what the timing set screw is it requires to be loosen when making major weight adjustments if it is it things can go wrong. Just trying to get some idea if you know the parts of an Oneida. If you don't ask or know just ask we can try and help. There are many shops that know how to work on Oneidas.. Years back a friend took his to a Bass Pro SHop and asked if ythey could work on his LFM which was new to him and they sure then they started turning the limb bolts goo thing he was watching because he stopped them and told them you did not loosen the timing set screw the tech the what and asked for his bow back and told the tech that the bow would be damaged the told him I guess you don't know Oneidas the following weekend I got a call and made a trip to his house to check the bow and set the weight where he wanted and checked it over for him... viewing the videos depending on the model you have might help to better understand you Oneida. The good thing is you can go back and watch them again and again if you miss anything... Once you see what they are doing it helps with set up adjustments and repairs... But when you are ready just come back and ask most here will try and assist you... We should be able to get it shooting again...
